Markus Kaarma has been charged with deliberate murder in the Sunday killing of Diren Dede, 17, of Hamburg.Mr Kaarma, a 29-year-old firefighter, has told investigators his home had twice been hit by burglars, and he told a hair stylist he had waited up at night to shoot intruders, prosecutors said.
On the night of the shooting, Mr Kaarma and his partner Janelle Pflager left their garage door open, and Ms Pflager left her purse in the garage in order to bait intruders, she told police.
They set up motion sensors and a video monitor, prosecutors said.
When the sensors went off just after midnight and they saw a man on the monitor screen, Mr Kaarma went outside and fired a shotgun into the garage without warning several times.

Even as a gun owner/lover, that shit is pretty extreme. I can just see people comparing it to the Zimmerman case though. This dude is going to enjoy a nice prison term with guys who don't take kindly to "child murderers".

Why you got that out of that tragedy, I don't think anyone gets. So this country is awesome until a tragedy happens, then it sucks. Or is this part of your anti firearm campaign?
Remember, don't let the haters get you down. Get a gun.
Later.. There's reapers that need some killin'
Btw I do find it amusing how you want us to adopt a system used by some European countries to reduce the income inequality here, but when I tell you the number of households in Switzerland and Israel that have firearms and the crime rate that exists, you go all Simple Jack.

That's a bad analogy though. Both Switzerland and Israel have compulsory military training which teaches citizens how to responsibly use weapons, discipline, and when it's okay to use lethal force. The Swiss are even allowed to take their service weapons home with them, IIRC.
Compared to America, where any Tom, Dick and Harry can acquire a gun and shoot it liberally at whoever is on their property because Castle Doctrine. I'm actually quite fine with gun ownership and use; what I don't advocate is weak gun control laws, poor training, and piss-poor legislation which can cost a kid his entire life over being in the wrong place at the wrong time. There was a black girl in Michigan, tiny as all hell who was shot in the face by a shotgun by some old white dude who thought she 'posed a threat'. ****ing ridiculous.
